Loneliness.

It tries everything in its power to convince me that I am better off alone.

My head constantly filled with self-hate and hopelessness.

​

I have come to the realization that nobody really gives a shit.

Notifications on my phone start to disappear.

Feeling that if I were to be the first one to stop texting, that I would never hear from them again.

I would start to forget what they looked like, and even the sound of their voices.

They would fade away like the clouds in the night sky.

​

I feel like I am the only person in the room when really, I am surrounded by people I know.

Their voices start to fade as I am left with only the voices in my mind.

My thoughts swarm me like bees to their hive.

Increasing in volume.

Figures around me start to fade, leaving me in the room all alone.

​

No way to escape the feeling.

No one around to hear me.

Loneliness - 1

Me - 0
